The story of a city cloaked in shadow, but burning with questions: why does the seamstress jump from the window? Why is a cryptic message stitched into her skin? And how is she connected to a rash of missing girls, all of whom seem to have disappeared under similar circumstances? On the case is Inspector Cutter, a detective as sharp and committed to his work as he is wryly hilarious. Gideon Bliss, a Cambridge dropout in love with one of the missing girls, stumbles into a role as Cutter's sidekick. And clever young journalist Octavia Hillingdon sees the case as a chance to tell a story that matters--despite her employer's preference that she stick toa women's society column. As Inspector Cutter peels back the mystery layer by layer, he leads them all, at last, to the secrets that lie hidden at the house on Vesper Sands"--Provided by publisher. 521 2 $a Adult $b Follett Library Resources. 650 0 $a Secrecy $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nobility $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Missing persons $v Fiction. 651 0 $a London (England) $x History $y 19th century $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Secrecy $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Nobility $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Missing persons $v Fiction. $2 sears 651 7 $a London (England) $x History $v Fiction. $2 sears 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 521 2 $a Adult. 510 0 $a Pub Weekly 510 0 $a Kirkus Review 941 $a 1 952 $l KHPB566 $d 20230126011913.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=67B7A9F2657C11ED9C98730021ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
